Subject: userspace object manager confused
Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2017 14:09:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170331120905.GA5699@t450.enp8s0.d30> (raw)

I vaguely recall that we discussed this issue or at least that i mentioned it here but i can't recall the outcome if any:

So today on my rawhide system i noticed that i somehow forgot to add support for the smc_socket class (i suspect that is part of the extended socket class patches)

I added the class (which i suppose is unordered like the othe extended socket classes) but as soon as I loaded up the policy with the new unordered smc_socket class the system became unusable.

This is because the dbus object manager became confused due to my adding a new (unordered) class at runtime, and that the dbus class was no longer working.

Modern systems heavily rely on dbus at the heart and so it is undesire-able that this happens.

A reboot clears this issue up but adding (unordered) classes at runtime should not cause these issues i suspect
